June against the rest of the year

June cloud at Severomorsk averages 83% in NASA POWER's 2001 to 2020 record, close to its yearly mean of 83%. July is Severomorsk's clearest month at 77%. By civil night times clear sky, June scores 0.0 hours at Severomorsk, 10th of 12. Murmansk, 17 km away, averages 79%, clearer by 4 points.

The sun never gets 6 degrees below the horizon at Severomorsk in June 2027, so every night is twilight or daylight. July 15 is still without civil night at Severomorsk.

June night by night

The moon runs its cycle as usual, new on Jun 4 and full on Jun 19, but with no civil night it makes no difference at Severomorsk in June.

Each cell is the night that starts on that date. Hours are civil-dark time with the moon below the horizon; the green rule scales with them. Green outline: new moon. Bone outline: full moon.

Activity in past Junes

Quiet activity already puts the oval edge over Severomorsk, so storm days matter more: 73 of the 900 June days from 1996 to 2025 (8%) reached Kp 5, 9th of 12 months. Severomorsk sits at 65.0 degrees geomagnetic, inside SWPC's 60 to 75 degree band, where aurora can be seen on more than half of all nights. No storm is needed: by SWPC's rule the average oval edge is overhead at Kp 1.
